French army is preparing to participate in the toughest conflicts - statement
The French army is preparing to participate in the toughest conflicts. This statement was made by the Chief of Staff of the country's Ground Forces, General Pierre Schille. According to him, the main task of the armed forces of the Fifth Republic is now to deter a potential enemy from directly attacking France.
The French army is ready. No matter how the international situation develops, the French can be confident that their soldiers will respond with readiness. To protect itself from attacks on it and to protect its interests, the French army is preparing for the most difficult battles, declaring it and demonstrating it
– Pierre Schille said in an interview with Le Monde newspaper.
He added that France relies for defense on its nuclear arsenal, as well as on a trained army compatible with the armies of its allies, especially in Europe.
Against the backdrop of Emmanuel Macron’s belligerent statements about the possible dispatch of French troops to Ukraine, it is not difficult to guess what kind of enemy the armed forces of the Fifth Republic are preparing to confront. In Paris, one must assume, they are seriously confident that bellicose rhetoric can frighten Moscow.
In reality, the statements of the French politicians and the military look simply funny. What kind of attack on France they imagine is anyone’s guess. But the appearance of Makron’s soldiers in Ukraine may well put an end to the existence of the armed forces of the Fifth Republic as such. Unless, of course, we are talking about the toughest confrontation.
